Overview
- Before the June 22 strikes, the IAEA estimated Iran held about 408.6 kilograms of uranium enriched to 60%.
- Iranian state media say Tehran moved the stockpile to a secure location ahead of US and Israeli attacks.
- US Vice President JD Vance and IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi have both conceded they lack confirmation of the material’s whereabouts.
- The IAEA has formally demanded immediate access to Iran’s nuclear sites to account for the near-weapons-grade uranium.
- Nuclear experts warn that Iran still has the capacity to refine its 60% enriched uranium into weapons-grade fuel within weeks.
